Restaurant.com is having a blow out sale on their gift certificates through 9/13. Enter code NINETY to get 90% off gift certificates.
Most are priced at $10 with a $25 face value. 90% off $10 is $1!!!!
There must be a catch, right?
Of course there is! Most restaurants have restrictions and require you to have a total bill of $35-$50 to use a $25 gift certificate. Some have certain days of the week, or holidays as days they will not accept the gift certificates. Others require a party of 2 or 4.
Even with the restrictions it’s still a fantastic deal. I paid $7.50 for $175 in gift certificates.
If I spend only $35 that would be equal to $11 for a $35 meal! A great deal especially if it means I don’t have to do dishes!
You can search for restaurants countrywide, so if you know you will have an upcoming trip (the certificates are good for one year), you can check for restaurants that participate in that area as well.
My favorite part of the whole thing? The gift certificates state in BOLD letters: “TIP YOUR SERVER ON THE FULL VALUE OF THE GUEST CHECK”
As a former waitress, I appreciate that very, very much. I still haven’t gotten over the time one family and their friends made many special requests, left a huge mess and $1.22 on a $80 bill.
